Chapter 832 - Let’s do an exchange

Shi Qian Zhi was currently doing research into a new type of poison when he received the news.

After a moment’s hesitation, she smiled and sighed, “Without talking about Jun Xian’s youngest Junior Brother, the Eye of the Earth isn’t an easy one to deal with! This time, that Mu guy has no choice but to leave empty handed.”

“They sent three men over, but the Eye of the Earth cleared them all on her own. He will definitely be made fun off once word of this gets out.”

“He won’t only be mocked.” Shi Qian Zhi continued to place the poison that he finished refining into the vessel, sneering, “We’re all obviously assassins, but he chose to go and capture them boldly and in broad daylight. He deserves to be killed. Mu Qian deserves it as well. Spread the news, then get Mu Qian to come and look for me.”

“Understood.”

“Bzzzzt-”

When the poison was blended in, it released a stinging smell. The foam that was released indicated that the fusion process had failed once again.

Seeing the mess on his table, Shi Qian Zhi did not move to clear it immediately. He sighed lightly, “This situation is so complicated! It’s so hard to handle…”

Sima You Yue and Little Seven went to purchase a whole lot of goods for daily essentials. Then, they returned to the city centre, went to Memory Restaurant to eat a lot of good food, and bought many bags of it. She was prepared to get Han Miao Shuang to take it back.

The sky was dark by the time they left Memory Restaurant. After walking down two stretches of road, they walked past the banyan tree where they first met Shi Qian Zhi. They saw a certain someone leaning on the side, counting the stars to pass the time.

“How coincidental, we meet again.” Shi Qian Zhi looked at Sima You Yue, smiling as he waved to her.

Sima You Yue looked at Shi Qian Zhi, subconsciously putting up her guard.

“Shi Qian Zhi? I’m afraid it might not be a coincidence for you to be here.”

Shi Qian Zhi saw how warily Sima You Yue was looking at him as he said, “Don’t look at me like that. I’m a good guy.”

“Do you think that you sound convincing?” Sima You Yue asked.

“I let your scarlet bee go, you know.” Shi Qian Zhi said, “If it were the past, I would definitely have killed it.”

“Wasn’t it just that you want it to pass me a message?” Sima You Yue said.

“Wasn’t it useless after it passed the message?” Shi Qian Zhi blinked, meaning that he had let it leave with its life out of charity.

“Where is Jiang Jun Xian?” Sima You Yue asked.

“In the sect. Do you want to look for him?” Shi Qian Zhi asked, “He misses his three junior brothers and sisters.”

“Does he?” Sima You Yue smiled, but there was no joy in her voice, “Then please tell him that we do not miss him.”

“Alright, I’ll definitely pass the message.” Shi Qian Zhi smiled, but his heart had other plans.

“Little Seven, let’s go.” Sima You Yue said to Little Seven.

“There’s no rush, we can stay and talk.” Shi Qian Zhi walked in front of Sima You Yue, blocking her path.

“Didn’t you say we met only by chance?” Sima You Yue said as she looked up at him.

“We can still talk even though we met only by chance.” Shi Qian ZHi said.

“But I have no interest in anything that you want to talk to me about.”

“Calm down, I haven’t said anything yet. Don’t rush to reject me.” Shi Qian Zhi said, “Perhaps you might be interested in what I want to say?”

“I’m guessing that the possibility is too low.” Sima You Yue siad.

“With her, you will guarantee fifty years of peace in the inner region.” Shi Qian Zhi stated his terms directly.

“Impossible.” Sima You Yue rejected him even without thinking. No matter what it was, if it involved her using Little Seven in a transaction, it would be impossible. “Little Seven, let’s go!”

She pulled on Little Seven, wanting to leave. She paid no more heed to Shi Qian Zhi. If he stopped her again, she was not afraid to meet him head on.

“I’m not done talking!” Shi Qian ZHhi’s body flashed and blocked her path again.

“I already said that I will not use Little Seven in exchange for anything. I’m not going to the inner region anyway, and will not need your protection. Also, I’m afraid that you do not have the ability to protect me.” Sima You Yue said icily, “Move, otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite!”

“Don’t be anxious, I only said I want her, not that you had to hand her over to me.” Shi Qian Zhi said, “I just want her to take a walk with me. Then, I’ll get someone to send her back.”

“Send her back?” Sima You Yue looked at him, her eyes filling with disdain, “Do you think that Little Seven will be able to return after leaving with you? Tell me, do you believe your own words?”

“I believe myself, of course I do.” Shi Qian Zhi said, “I’m a very honest person. I have never blustered before.”

“…”

Thick skinned!

“Little Seven, beat him up!” Sima You Yue siad.

“Wait! I’m being very sincere.” Shi Qian Zhi said, “How about this, it’s fine if Little Seven doesn’t go over, but I’ll bring someone over here. Little Seven can help to treat him, then this can be considered as a done deal as well. How about it?”

“You need my help to save someone?” Little Seven looked at Shi Qian Zhi, “Are you an idiot? The thing I hate the most is to use myself to save someone, and you’re asking me to save someone?’

“Little Seven, don’t’ listen to his nonsense.” Sima You Yue said.

“Mm, I know. I’m not an idiot, okay.” Little Seven said seriously.

“I’m doing a deal with you now, I’m not making you do it for free.” Shi Qian Zhi said.

“Fifty years of peace. It’s easy to say, but once those from the inner regions really find out, how difficult would it be.” Shi Qian Zhi said, “Also, This is not the only thing that I’m giving you. You have to see the many benefits.”

“What benefits?” Little Seven asked.

“You see, if we ensure your safety, we will naturally not spread word of your existence and not invite trouble for you. Of course we would not make things hard for ourselves.” Shi Qian Zhi said.

“Are you threatening us?!” Sima You Yue said with an icy expression.

“I’m not threatening you, we’re just good friends having a nice chat.” Shi Qian Zhi said.

“If you can keep your poison from leaking out of your body, perhaps I could believe that you are a good friend.” Sima You Yue said coldly.

“Ah ah, got found out.” Shi Qian Zhi was not embarrassed at being exposed, “This is just the highest quality spice.”

“Spice with added ingredients.” Sima You Yue said, “It’s just a pity that it’s useless against me.”

“I know that it’s useless as well.” Shi Qian Zhi said with a smile.

“Since you know that it’s useless, why do you still do it? Are you an idiot or what.” Little Seven looked at him with her big eyes, clearly telling him that she thought he was stupid.

Shi Qian Zhi looked at Little Seven speechlessly, why did it feel like her response made him completely unable to reply?

He waved his sleeves, and the light scent immediately disappeared.

“I think that you can think it over. The conditions that I listed are very beneficial to you. If you feel that we are threatening you, then you can think of it in another way. Our conditions are listed after thought on your behalf. If others were to know that she was the Eye of the Earth, your later days are clear without me needing to say anything. You guys should think it over.”

Sima You Yue fell deep into contemplation.

Shi Qian Zhi was right. If Little Seven’s identity was leaked, there would be countless powers after her. At that time, she would be at the heart of trouble.
